[PATCH v3 0/8] arm64: amlogic: T7 thermal support

Ronald Claveau
2026-04-21T07:20:27Z

This series adds thermal monitoring support for the Amlogic T7 SoC,
used on the Khadas VIM4 board.

The T7 exposes six thermal sensors (a53, a73, gpu, nna, vpu, hevc),
each accessible through the secure monitor firmware interface rather
than a directly mapped eFuse register as on older SoCs.

The series is organized as follows:

- Patch 1 extends the amlogic,t7-thermal DT binding to describe the
new amlogic,secure-monitor property.
- Patches 2-3 extend the Meson secure monitor driver to expose a
thermal calibration read command (SMC ID 0x82000047).
- Patch 4 adds the secure monitor readout path to the amlogic thermal
driver and introduces the amlogic,t7-thermal compatible.
- Patches 5-7 wire up the T7 DTSI with CPU cooling cells, sensor
nodes, and thermal zones.
- Patch 8 extends the Khadas VIM4 DTS to map all thermal zones to the
on-board MCU fan controller (states 30–100, corresponding to the
FAN_CTRL register range 0x1E–0x64).
